It’s A Bitch. But Worth It.

That was my contribution to the One Life, Six Words competition currently running at Foyles. Following on from the online competition in the Guardian, Foyles is offering you the chance to write your own memoir, and win a personalised copy of the book in the real world. The exhibition, in their Gallery space, is really worth a visit, not only so that you can pin up your version of a six-word life but also so that you can see the fantastic posters of some of the short lives, designed by our very own Steve Boggs. It’s running throughout Christmas but, if you can’t get there, you could always be much more 21st-century and submit your story here: Submissions can be added to the exhibition in person or emailed to sixwords@foyles.co.uk.
